Debra Ballew Obituary
Born to her mother, Louise Boucher and her stepfather, Roger Boucher, Debra was known for her sincere heart, her crafty talents and her ability to make any moment a little brighter. She had a genuine passion for bowling, whether she was celebrating a great frame, cheering on others or treating League Night like a weekly reunion. She always brought joy and a competitive edge to the lanes. She adored animals and loved finding small, everyday reasons to smile.
Debra is survived by her husband, John Allen Ballew; son, Justin Ballew; daughter, Melanie Ballew; siblings, Shirley, Patricia, Freddy, Ronnie, and Joe; along with many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her siblings Nancy and Steven; and nephew, Norman Wrenn III.
Debra will be laid to rest in Pine Grove Cemetery in Manchester, New Hampshire. A celebration of her life will be held at a later date in North Carolina.
